Settling in

During the past couple of days we have been trying to settle into some kind of routine. Riva sleeps in the living room in an x-pen and settles now quite nicely when I put him in there. This morning he actually let me sleep till seven!

We have also visited a couple of my friend and Riva got to meet some new people and dogs. He has proven to be a very polite puppy, respecting older dogs and so some that are a bit grouchy otherwise have accepted him. Very good boy :-). I also took him with me when I went to do some groceries and we had a little walk in the "center" of Lievestuore. Its a very small place but still there were some people on bicycles, kids on skateboards and cars.

Today I also made a food square for him for the second time, its a very basic exercise for tracking, teaching him to follow the scent of broken ground. He was very focused and thorough, liked that a lot. Later we will do tracking on pavement, to learn tracking human scent without the help of broken ground.
